Abstract
This video is about a Torghut herder’s daily life. Once every two days, Münkhe sets out early in the morning to check his horses and cows and rounds them up close to home so that they don’t roam too far away. After breakfast, he leaves home to herd his sheep on the mountain and returns at the sunset. His wife Bayaa does house chores and looks after their son during the day. Dinner is the main meal of the day. They mostly stew mutton with noodle and eat various dairy food in summer.
